Biography:

Law Clerk to Hon J. Crist, Missouri Court of Appeals Judge, 1981-1982. Born: Richmond Heights, Missouri. Voted preeminent in his field by his peers, Larry Gillespie excels in domestic and appellate litigation. With 37 years experience in his field, few attorneys are better qualified to handle cases pertaining to family law. Mr. Gillespie previously clerked for a judge of the Missouri Court of Appeals and in the years since, has perfected numerous appeals, including several matters before the Missouri Supreme Court, most recently Bowers v. Bowers, which granted custody to a man listed on the child’s birth certificate as the child’s father, but who was not the child’s biological father.
